Graviteam Tactics Mius Front - Narrow Victory: The Left Hook

This is a self-made scenario assembled with the game's scenario editor. This post is a continuation from a previous one. 

And then, a few minutes later, the enemy (yellow and blue icons) became quite clear. There was Russian infantry trying to turn our left flank. And the armor was assembling slightly to our right, probably to lead the infantry in a direct assault on OBJ Greta.

Note the blue and yellow icons showing the Soviet infantry and armor. 

Soviet infantry supported by tanks moving nearby our right flank. 

The German troops hold their positions against the left Soviet hook.

My left wing holds on (note the grey icons, which are Soviet casualties) but when the Soviet combined infantry-tank attack continues to press towards OBJ Greta, a significant amount of crossfire rains upon my troops.

Aided by the Stuart tank's fire, it's the perfect storm.

Some squads start to rout in absolute panic.

Reverse slope or not, the fire superiority imposed by the Soviet light tanks is daunting.

Then the battle ends. Both sides are exhausted and shaken. 

This is a new debrief screen that shows the casualties and intensity of fire over time.

I don't know what to make of this "minor victory". OBJ Greta was in Soviet hands and we would be unable to counter-attack. We were still in our trenches and holding tight, although at a very steep price. 

But observing the Soviet AI trying to outflank us without any script or user-edited waypoint, was a perfect example of how fantastic this game is. It was quite a shallow flanking maneuver, I wished I had left a squad or two for a counter-attack when the Soviets were pinned down.

Cheers,
